Answer
Unfortunately, I would need to inspect each coin.  There are many counterfeit coins coming out of China these days.
Trade dollars were not made in the 1700's, hence I believe that one to be not genuine.

They all look too "NEW" to me.  Find a professional to inspect them, I can't do it over the internet.
